"How do you..."

Bill stared at him blankly, the blond demon was in a panic, not only his appearance, but he could only smell the stench of blood from Dipper when he got close to him.

A professor with a cleanliness can kill a fly with his eyebrows.

But he didn't take back the hand that was outstretched.

"Get up," Dipper repeated, "we don't have time to get stuck in the past, the salamanders are waiting outside."

Speaking of the salamander, Bill seemed to have been poured with cold water, his quivering pupils fixed again, and he escaped from the dreamy state that he had squatted too much.Trembling, the blond demon took Alcor's hand.

The blood stain spread on the white glove, and soon left a large circular bloodstain in the middle. Dipper acted as if he hadn't seen it, he pulled the demon up from the bloody ground with force.

"You're disgusting."

Bill habitually opened his mouth to refute, but sadly found that this was an ironclad fact.

He could only change the subject.

"How did you find this?"

Dipper turned sideways.Allow Bill to see the cliff.

"Damn it. She wants to tell you something."

Bill and Evelyn were taken aback at the same time.

"I guess." The young professor added.

Bill was really surprised when he saw Evelyn's face, but he calmed down in an instant, so fast that one wondered if he had lost control of his emotions just now. Bill immediately gave Dipper a familiar smirk.

"I said PineTree, are you covered in butter? Who is this from..."

"Do you think I'm blind?" Dipper interrupted him impatiently, "You have exactly the same eyes, do you think I can't see?"

Bill moved his mouth, then finally closed it.

"You guys need to talk, have a good talk," Dipper said.

Bill looked away, trying to pull his hand away, but Dipper held it tighter than ever before.He tried it, but it didn't come out.

"I have nothing to talk about with illusions," he said in a stiff tone, with a deliberate laugh at the end of the sentence, "I'm not you, a ShootingStar like a mummy can trap you for a long time. I don't know that guy and you What was said was all lies.”

Bill gasped, and he looked at Evelyn.

"Ah, I remembered. Aren't you the phantom whose neck I broke?"

Evelyn stood on a high place, and her smile did not change from the beginning to the end.She nodded after listening to this sentence, her beautiful and slender neck moved with the movements.Like a white lily blown by the wind.

"But, Bill, but that slap wasn't from 'I', it was from 'You'."

Bill finally changed his face.

"What did you say?"

Evelyn didn't seem to see Bill's anger.She spoke calmly:

"Mrs. Cipher never slapped you."

She looked up, watching the dark clouds, and the purple sun.She still wears heavy skirts in the last days, although the skirts are tattered.

Evelyn said, "Mrs. Cipher died before he could touch you, didn't he?"

Bill was silent, but Dipper could feel the force in his palm.He heard the sound of his finger bones screaming.

"I think you still remember, no, I think you always remember how Mrs. Cipher died."

Bill finally reacted.He forced two words through his teeth.

"Shut up."

Evelyn wasn't about to shut up.

"It's all about your imagination and self-punishment. Because Mrs. Cipher..."

"I said shut up!"

The woman's golden eyes are as calm as water.

"Because she couldn't accept that her son did the planet's doomsday, she committed suicide on the third day of the doomsday outbreak."

She closed her eyes at Dipper's astonishment and Bill's anger.

"It's all just your imagination, Bill."

Evelyn brutally tore open Bill's old scars.

"It's always just that you don't want to let yourself go."

The flame came out of his hand, but was scattered by another blue light. Bill knew who did it without even thinking about it.

"Pine Tree what are you doing?!"

"You're the one to do it!" Dipper yelled back with the same decibel, but he didn't let go of the hand that was holding Bill, "Calm down!"

"I am calm, very calm. I will not allow this false apparition to speak out in my consciousness!"

Dipper punched Bill in the face!

He beat Bill back into the puddle of blood and didn't forget to put a chain on both wrists, lest the man go crazy and burn Evelyn again.

"You have to understand, Bill Cipher," Dipper said in an astonishingly indifferent tone, "everything you see is fake. The sea of ​​blood is fake, the lizard man is fake, and Mrs. Cipher is not the only one who is fake."

Bill spat out a mouthful of blood that he accidentally swallowed.

"Is she right? Bill, you've seen the depths of my consciousness, you know what I've been shackled by the Apocalypse. I know that scene can't just be forgotten. They're A deep sore is a rotten sore, if you don’t solve it or dig it out, it will stay there forever, and it will erupt at a critical moment and kill you.”

"...I solved it."

"I've never come out. You said that to me, Bill."

The blond demon was silent.

"Time won't smooth everything out, if it does," Dipper sighed softly, "Will you go back to ten years ago with me?"

He approaches Bill.

"You never forget that, am I right, Bill?"

Bill didn't answer, he just closed his eyes.The hollow eye socket was still bleeding.

Dipper softened his tone.

"What happened in the first place?"

"... She already told you."

"I want to hear you say it again."

In the beginning, I wanted to touch the "core of the world".Demons are strong, powerful, and knowledgeable, and their long lifespan means that they will have infinite time to wander in the universe.No one is a match for the devil, even the time giants who call themselves "space-time police" keep them at a respectful distance.Forgot to mention that the time giants are useless except for their tricky time manipulation ability.

He easily summoned the flames when he was very young, and he saw the shocked expressions of the elders around him.He was surrounded by those with golden eyes, who praised the boy's talents and blessed him.

How ridiculous that the saboteurs would offer their blessings.

He thought them stupid, stupid.

He refused to communicate with his peers, and gradually the elders couldn't keep up with his thoughts.He was too bright, too active, and proud.

He thinks that all demons who can't keep up with his thinking are rubbish.He disdains those slander and jealousy, he thinks that as long as he climbs high enough, the slander and slander of those losers can't keep up with him.He just needs to stand on a high place and overlook the scenery.

That's it.

He wants to climb higher and see more beautiful scenery.He wants to stand on top of the untouched world and let the whole universe remember his name.

But where is the Road to Heaven so easy to climb?

When he was casting the ladder, he accidentally "touched" "that guy" in the gap between time and space.

The salamander, who claims to be omniscient, handed him "Prometheus' fire".

He should stop his curiosity, he has climbed very high.

But he didn't.

He was so stupid then, but he thought he held the golden key.He broke the seal.

Doomsday.

He will never forget the magic power of the planet that was overdrawn because the magic went wrong.The magic power in the air was so thick that it was shocking, he had never enjoyed so much magic power.He thought his experiment was successful, he increased the magic power content in the air, they could be stronger...

The result was death.

What Salamander gave him was not Prometheus' fire, but Pandora's box.

The destruction of the planet is like a train with brake failure, rushing towards the end of destruction.He could only sit in the carriage and watch the scenery on both sides sweep back, shaking the joystick feebly.

Then there was an earth-shattering sound, the flames and the rails exploded together, and the train fell to pieces at the bottom of the valley, and no one survived.

Only he crawled out of it dying, lingering on his last breath.

"I thought it was my own fault, although I was wrong, idiot arrogant." Bill gasped, his voice was soft and broken, "but I was even more stupid to sign a contract with the salamander. The bondage one, you know."

Of course Dipper knew.

"Then when did you react?"

Bill showed a toothache expression, his face full of embarrassment.

"It was almost eaten that time."

Dipper: "..."

Dipper: "You are so stupid." How many years have passed?Thousands of years or tens of thousands of years?

Bill rolled his eyes, the tips of his ears flushed.

"Shut up, it's not your turn to talk about me."

Dipper pulled him up from the pool of blood, Bill was a little dazed, he didn't seem to have thought that Dipper could suppress the cleanliness and come to drag him - he thought it was unprecedented to reach out to him at that time.

Of course Dipper was disgusted as always.

"Then if you calm down now, please talk to Mrs... and Evelyn."

He interrupted roughly before Bill could speak.

"Ah, I know she's fake. But Bill, she's a projection of your heart, your guilt over the end of the planet. Of course I won't say 'it's not your fault' that Waddles can't fool," Dipper He straightened his collar for Bill, "But buddy, people always have to look forward. Whether the truth is revealed or black and white are turned upside down, you have to solve it. You have to find a way to solve it. Don't be a ghost bound by the past."

"And that's what you taught me."

Dipper pushed him from behind.

Bill staggered, he looked back at Dipper, the young man was speechless, and pouted forward, which meant to go quickly. Bill turned back, swallowing.The blond demon cleared his throat, straightened his back, and tugged on his jacket—it was useless, his clothes were covered in blood, dripping when he walked, and he was extremely dirty.

Just as he was about to move forward, he heard Evelyn say in a disgusted tone that was trying to hide but was useless: "Don't come here."

Bill: "..."

Evelyn smiled: "I don't dislike your dirty body, really no son."

Bill: "..." There is no doubt that Evelyn has such a bad temper.

The blond devil didn't force it either, he stood under the cliff.

He said, "You're not Evelyn Cipher."

The woman smiled and said, "Continue."

"I've seen you," Bill said slowly, choosing his words. "That angry phantom I used to see in the beginning of Planetfall was also you, right?"

Evelyn nods.

She said suddenly, "You're always like this."

"……what?"

"You are always like this, thinking that you are hated by everyone. At that time, you always dreamed of these things, dreaming that I and everyone spoke bad words to you. Each of us demons cursed you with all kinds of vicious words."

Evelyn frowned slightly. She made this movement very attractive to protect people, but the words she said were not as harmless as the expressions.She jumped off the cliff, but her movements were very light, and the thick skirt was like a butterfly spreading its wings.

Evelyn moved closer to Bill, a bloody splatter on her face with every step she took.Her cheeks were like shattered porcelain, with cracks and cracks in the fine glaze, and blood dripped down the cracks.

She walked up to Bill and held up her palm.

"Do you think so, my son?"

She slapped it down, and the bloody air was rolled up by the sleeves, and the wind of her palm was sharp.

Bill didn't move, and neither did Dipper.

Evelyn's hand stopped short of touching Bill's face.The lace was slapped on the cheek by the way, and there was a slight tingling.

Blood rolled from the woman's eyes.

"Who has time to hate you when every demon can only care about himself?"

Bill was struck by lightning.

The doomsday scene began to crumble, and the bloody wind stopped blowing.Starting from the purple-black sky, the world gradually dissipated into particles.

Evelyn's appearance should be very ferocious, but she looked at Bill with gentle eyes.Not a bit of rage, not a bit of hatred.

She is identical to a human mother except for her eyes and ears.

The scarred hand slowly fell to Bill's ear, and she stroked it, her fingertips resting around the hollow eye sockets.

She sighed softly: "It's you who don't let yourself go, my son."

"Who has the time to hate you? Who has the chance to hate you?" Evelyn laughed and shed tears, "Because we don't even have time to hate you, we're going to die."

"Of course I'm angry, but ah, haven't you already paid the price?"

Her fingers slowly stroked around the eye sockets, moving carefully, for fear of accidentally touching those tender flesh and blood.

Evelyn pulled the corners of her mouth slowly, and she let out a smile that was uglier than crying amid tears.

"My child, in these countless times, isn't the loneliness you have endured enough to pay? Isn't the regret you have endured enough to pay? Isn't the... pain you have suffered enough to pay for?" ?”

"My child, my mother has always wanted to ask you, these years... how are you doing?"

Dipper silently turned his head away.

Bill trembled, he gasped, he licked his chapped upper lip, his eyes wandered.He seemed to find it funny, but the corners of his mouth moved up and down after a few seconds.

His answer was intermittent, with a deliberate smile hidden in his tone.

"... How can I live well, old lady."

Evelyn nodded with a smile, tears of blood dripping from the curve of her jaw.

"That's right...that's right..." She raised her head abruptly, her tone suddenly turned fierce, "So, my son, isn't this the biggest price?"

Bill reached out, trying to cover Evelyn's hand.But the woman pushed him away just as he was about to cover it.

Evelyn opened the distance between mother and child, and the mother roared in the doomsday of collapse.

"My son has done something irreparably wrong. He is beyond redemption. I am dying of the destruction of the planet. I will not deny Bill's mistake; but as a mother, I put my son's life and death above the planet. !"

She stretched out her hand, and the sword that Bill had accidentally discarded spun and flew towards Evelyn's palm.

She aimed the blade at her neck, as slender as a lily stem.

"I am relieved that my son survived, and I confess to that."*

"Wait... Evelyn!"

The doomsday dissipated faster, and the vast white light replaced the mountain of corpses and the sea of ​​blood. Evelyn's breakdown couldn't be stopped, and she laughed as her blood crumbled.

"Myson," said her golden eyes, as bright as the first rays of sunlight tearing through the darkness, "do you remember how I died?"

Bill bit his lower lip.

Evelyn urged gently, "Myson?"

Bill took a deep breath.

"...Why are you so cruel?"

"Yes, yes. This is the final price I want you to pay," Evelyn kept laughing. "My son, I want you to face the cruelty of death. Ah, maybe you have experienced it yourself twice, but this is not enough." not enough."

"You have to learn to say goodbye."

twice? Dipper was taken aback.

Evelyn said: "I declare as the dead, no one has ever held a grudge against you for the destruction of the planet, and you don't have to continue to blame yourself. You have been alone for so long. The price has been paid, and you don't need to continue to be in prison. .I am your mother, and I will bear all this for you, and seeing this is the final price you will pay."

"Now, Myson, please answer me, how did I die?"

Bill closed his eyes, but the eyelashes were trembling.After a while, he opened it, and for the first time there was light flowing from that single golden eye.

"On the third day of the last days, he ended his own life with a sword."

Evelyn smiled: "The answer is correct."

"Dear Pine Tree," she called Dipper suddenly, "my son, please. Please accompany him to the end of time, and I will be grateful."

Dipper was silent, and he nodded very lightly for a while.

It's a promise.

Evelyn's mouth parted, she was smiling until the end.Laugh in the end, laugh before death.

"So far, my son, you have made a clean break with the past."

She swung her sword, and the blade cut through her neck, spattering blood. Dipper watched the self-destruction, the beautiful flower fall from the branch, drowned in blood.She smiled and raised her sword, as if pain did not exist and death was not terrible.

She was so generous, erasing Bill's nightmare.

The world collapsed more and more quickly, and at the moment Yuanshan turned into particles, the young demon asked: "...is she really just a residue?"

Bill looked up, Dipper couldn't see his expression clearly, he could only see the quiet profile of the blond demon - he was rarely so quiet.

There are too many mysteries in Evelyn, and too many incongruities.She is like a memory residue, but some words and deeds are not the same.She knows too much, but how does the phantom of memory know Alcor?

She appeared so abruptly, but she paid eternal tenderness in this short moment.Her origin is unknown, but her smile is real and full of warmth.

Evelyn Cipher, Dipper let the name roll on his lips again, Evelyn. Bill's... mother.

"Who knows."

Bill patted the clothes, and he approached Dipper.The young man looked up at him, and Alcor noticed that the demon's tone sounded relaxed, as easy as shaking off some filth.

But he didn't smile.

The blond devil lowered his eyebrows, his eyebrows drooped, as if he realized that his mouth was wrong, Bill stretched his facial muscles, and repeated:

"Who knows."

Dipper didn't respond, he just stepped forward, toward Bill; he stood in front of Bill. Dipper stopped so close to Bill that he could hear his breath.

He didn't say anything, just held out his hands; his arms passed under the demon's armpit, and he hugged Bill's broad shoulders.

Then get closer.

Dipper stood on tiptoe and rested his chin on Bill's shoulder.He slowly tightened his arms.

In a world on the verge of collapse, he gave his sworn enemy a hug.

TBC.
